Maddie's blog post can be found here.
I thought Maddie's posts shared some interesting insight into how TV has changed our everyday lives. I also agree with what she said about the cost of TV ads and how that affects our political world. Because the ads are so expensive to run, it makes it nearly impossible for political candidates to not accept corporate money. One of the main reasons Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign was so successful is because people know and understand money corrupts good people. The money donated by corporations is also a good way to see which industries a candidate has pandered to, because they don't just donate money to be nice. They want something in it for themselves.
Overall, I really like Maddie's blog, especially this post. It shows she understand and has developed opinions on TV's effects on our past and present. Great job, Maddie!
